“MedComp 14F Hemodialysis Catheter Kits Have Wrong Introducer Type.” GovInfoNow, updated August 20, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/68842-medcomp-14f-hemodialysis-catheter-kits-have-wrong-introducer-type. Based on FDA recall #Z-2216-2019 (https://api.fda.gov/device/enforcement.json?search=recall_number:%22Z-2216-2019%22&limit=1).

Why it’s dangerous

The kits are labeled as containing a 15F "valved" peelable introducer, but actually contain a 15F "non-valved" peelable introducer. This difference affects how the catheter is inserted, potentially causing complications during dialysis procedures.

Who’s affected

Hemodialysis patients and healthcare providers who use the recalled MedComp catheter insertion kits. Those most at risk are patients receiving dialysis treatments with these kits.
